$Brian Jackson - Addiction Interlude feat Raquel Ra Brown #jazz #newmusic Addiction (Interlude) sees talented wordsmith Raquel Ra Brown in rapid fire prose over a haunting sparse jazz arrangement, who offers a no-holds barred observational commentary on the perils of substance abuse and Americas woeful track record in addressing the matter. People became addicted to the lie, the poet opines, locking away Black and brown men, addicted to the flood of crack filling voids to destroying the lives of Black women and men, babies born addicted to crack, today its meth and opioids; its a crisis. Classically trained jazz pianist virtuoso, flautist, songwriter, arranger/producer, musical director and trail blazing creative visionary. Brian Jacksons resume more than speaks for itself; an impressive, musically fruitful trajectory in a career that has spanned well beyond 5 decades. Bedford Stuyvesant, Brooklyn, New York City born and raised, a child prodigy with a talent nurtured and molded firmly within Black Americas rich jazz tradition (inspired by such blues, swing, bebop and post-bop greats as Clifford Brown, Ella Fitzgerald, Joe Williams, John Coltrane); one that would be fine honed in later years by the supernatural-like funk, soul and rock sounds of music contemporaries Stevie Wonder, Jimi Hendrix, Marvin Gaye, and Curtis Mayfield. As one half of Gil-Scott-Heron and Brian Jackson, he would be the music alchemist to his lyrically gifted and charismatic partners prescient, blues-laden observational musings, forged deep in the crucible of the post WWII Black Arts Movement responsible for such literary and performative talents as Langston Hughes, Amiri Baraka, Sonia Sanchez, Oscar Brown Jr, Nikki Giovanni, and The Last Poets. Theirs would be a collaborative partnership like no other: a reality truth to power manifesto on politics, culture and everyday life, delivered through song via an equally unapologetic blues, jazz and funk rhythm template. Two modern day griots, embedded firmly in that time-honoured African tradition of disseminating news and sharing information. Now More Than Ever is Brian Jacksons latest offering for BBE Music. It takes up the legacy baton some two years on from where This Is Brian Jackson (his impressive debut for the label) left off. Where This Is comprised unreleased demo material from the duos mid 70s heyday with newer songs that wisely referenced Jacksons funk and jazz heritage, this latest all-new offering pays direct homage to the very songs of that famed partnership. The albums title (taking its cue from the opening chant on Peace Go With You Brother”), is an appreciative nod to the enduring relevance of Jackson and Scott-Herons inspirational gift to the world; songs that are now over 5 decades old, though which speak more than ever before to those major topical issues that afflict our markedly fractured, conflict-ridden and polarised present day world. ...
